The former partner of the denturist who killed 22 Nova Scotians in an April shooting rampage has filed a claim against his estate, setting the stage for what could be an emotional legal battle with the families of his victims over his holdings, which are estimated to be worth about $1.2 million, including properties in Dartmouth and Portapique.
The statement of claim, filed in Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Halifax on Wednesday, is the first public statement from the former partner since the events of April 18 and 19, when her common-law partner went on a murder rampage in a replica RCMP cruiser.
She is seeking damages for assault and battery and false imprisonment and “intentional infliction of mental suffering” at the hands of Gabriel Wortman on the night of April 18.
